"Now the end is upon you, and I will send my anger upon you; I will judge you according to your ways, and I will punish you for all your abominations." -- Ezekiel 7:3

The day is approaching when the end will come and the Lord will judge us according to our ways as a nation. While Israel was filled to overflowing with rebellion and idolatry, our nation is not far off. How long before abortion is judged? How long before our moral depravity is called into account? How long before our worship of the mighty dollar is dealt with? We sing and pray that God will bless America, but when will she turn from her wicked ways?

Before we celebrate our independence this year my friend, let us seek a new dependence upon the Lord. Let us humble ourselves, pray and turn from our wicked ways before "the end is upon us." Don't ever think that America is more privileged than Israel. If the Lord reigned terror down on the "apple of His eye" (Deuteronomy 32:9), we need revival before it's too late.
